Acceleration has two parts ... its size and its direction.
To find the size (magnitude):
-- pick a time interval
-- measure the speed at the beginning of the interval
-- measure the speed at the end of the interval
-- subtract the speed at the beginning from the speed at the end
-- divide that difference by the length of the time interval
-- the result is the magnitude of acceleration during that time interval

To find acceleration you subtract what?
To find acceleration you subtract initial velocity from final velocity and divide it by time.
How do you find velocity with no acceleration or time?
Velocity can only be identified by acceleration or time, even though we can also find it using force
Find average acceleration and instanious acceleration?
average acceleration is the average of the acceleration of a body in its entire motion where as instantaneous acceleration is the rate of change of velocity at an instant. it may be a function of time or velocity or displacement.
How do you find acceleration of a speed time graph?
Acceleration=change in y graph/change in x graph
What is the formula to find force when mass and acceleration are known?
F = m AMultiply (mass) times (acceleration). The product is (force).
How do you find the uniform acceleration if the speed and acceleration are given?
Find out the time using speed and acceleration, (time=speed/acceleration) and then use it to find out uniform velocity. From that find out uniform acceleration. (as uniform acceleration is equal changes of velocity over equal intervals of time)
To find acceleration you subtract what?
To find acceleration you subtract initial velocity from final velocity and divide it by time.
How do you find the acceleration?
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)
How do you find speed when you have a time and an acceleration?
Speed = Time x acceleration
How do you find speed from acceleration and time?
speed equals to acceleration into time
How do you find distance given acceleration and speed?
acceleration times speed
How do you find the mass of an object from it's acceleration?
You cannot is you only know the acceleration
How do you find average acceleration?
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)
How do you find velocity with no acceleration or time?
Velocity can only be identified by acceleration or time, even though we can also find it using force
When an object is accelerating constantly how to find the acceleration?
When the acceleration is constant then s= 1/2 at^2 and the acceleration is a=2s/t^2.
How do you find acceleration when given only mass and velocity?
You can't. Acceleration is change in velocity. If given a constant velocity, the acceleration is zero.
Find average acceleration and instanious acceleration?
average acceleration is the average of the acceleration of a body in its entire motion where as instantaneous acceleration is the rate of change of velocity at an instant. it may be a function of time or velocity or displacement.
